Empty primary tags whenever the user clicks start a discussion

SallyMelek

Wondering if there's a way for having a "none primary tag" chosen when the user starts a discussion on whatever the user selects. Let's say the user is browsing "feedback" tag and clicks to start a discussion" want the primary tag chosen manually. Don't want "feedback" tag selected a primary automatically.

SallyMelek there's no built-in option for that but an extension should be able to change that behavior. You could also fork the Tags extension privately to make this change for your forum.

SallyMelek The simplest solution to this is just to start a new discussion from the main index, which provides the blank tag field. Flarum tries to be helpful when you're browsing a tag and pre-fill that tag when you're starting a new discussion there.

jordanjay29 i understand, how could I disable the pre-filled tag?

SallyMelek Clark explained what would be required, I'm just offering an explanation for when Flarum applies those tags.
